>> everybody points out the fiscal cliff, election, fiscal issues are certainly important. what's important to me from an equity perspective is seeing taxation on equity returns kept low. i really don't want to see the dividend or capital gains rate go any higher than 25%. i'd like to see these two rates stay equal to each other. that's important to us. >> is there a cost to the market associated with that changing n your view? >> yeah, if the dividend rate goes up to the marginal income tax rate, this market will give back some of the rally and it will limit the upside for next year. >> is there a point at which you see obama in the polls and you say actually now i believe that we are going to get the tax hikes and the market should fall? there must be a watershed quite soon as we head towards particularly what happens in the house and the senate. >> our focus has been on the senate. we think that's what's going to mostly influence the outcome. i hope there's appetite to see the rates low. i don't see a benefit from raising them. i would call a coin toss on the senate outc

some calendar issues in terms of the request from spain to october 21st is when there are regional elections and sometimes probably after that there will be a request from spain for some sort of a bailout. >> i always find the way the market looks at these things is rather extraordinary. you have the most important banks and what's happening is it's saying, look, we welcome it and the stock goes higher. bbva, another player, when you have bailouts, the stock is supposed to go lower. think about our country when bank of america decided to take the money. then they had to go to an equity law firm. this is encouraging to me. i would think this actual bailout is one that says, we are now past, the pig is much further along. you don't want a python swallowing a pig, but it's going to follow it when it is finished. >> words to live by, jim. words to live by. >> i think about that often, actually. >> we just listened to an incredible hour of television on "squawk box" with zell talking about what he's seen in the economy, talking more about corporate i.t. upgrade cycles. here's what zell said not t

hasn't said a word about that in the election campaign so far. you can expect the two to clash on that issue, as well. >> john, i know you've looked at some poll numbers from the journal and nbc news. maybe a slight tightening on a national level. but certainly in some important states like ohio, the president continues to lead. i know you've said the romney strategists believe they need ohio. if it's mathematically possible to win without it, why do they still believe they need it? >> well, because if you don't win ohio, you're probably not going to win, say, wisconsin, which is another mid western state, paul ryan's on the ticket, that moves in similar ways to the state of ohio. it's hard to piece together especially given the overwhelming dominance by the president of the hispanic vote, states like colorado where we are right now, or nevada. so ohio may be a better shot for mitt romney. as i mentioned, i was talking to a romney strategist the other day and said, well, you're getting closer in florida, but you're still far behind in ohio. and h
